Summary: More aptly titled "Stupid, Texas". Fear this movie.
Review: I realized that most of the customer reviews are by people who loved the product and want to share their enthusiasm. I do the exact same thing and thats cool, but now it's time to show some disdain. I rented Happy, Texas thinking it would be a nice little quirky comedy that the whole family could watch, and to an extent, even enjoy. I didn't expect to cringe so much. I watched about 40 minutes, then it's continuing horror made me turn it off. Happy, Texas is the worst movie I have rented this year. It's even worse than Stars Wars:EP1, and even She's All That! Judging from the portion that I watched, no real effort was made. It's painfully primitive, it's pathetic, stay away. Simple as that.On second thought, it isn't quite as bad as She's All That. Yikes!

Summary: Happy Happy Happy!
Review: For a light-hearted funny film this is the one to watch! I waited in line hours to see this at Sundance back in 1999....and could not wait until it made it to the theaters..but somehow because of a lack of publicity I missed it. But do not let that turn you away. Watch this movie and you will be laughing for hours! It will put you in a very happy happy happy mood.

Summary: good movie, very good cast
Review: Funny and entertaining. The cast makes up for the predictable script. My only problem is the price tag: $27.99?? You got to be kidding!

Summary: FUNNY,FUNNY MOVIE!
Review: The opening armadillo scene is one of the funniest things I have seen in a long time. This movie was a big hit with my hard to please 17 year old, as well as a variety of different ages of people. My only complaint is where the heck are those west Texas orange groves?

Summary: Great Little Movie
Review: This movie is hilarious from beginning to end. It is quite simple and predictable but that's not the point of the movie. You see it for the incredible performances of the actors and actresses, especially Steve Zahn and William H. Macy. Lots of laughs and great acting. Recommended for anyone looking for a good time with a light-hearted movie.

Summary: Well, then.... The light is green!
Review: Happy, Texas is a real delight: a very smart comedy with a uniformly strong cast that draws much of its appeal from the relationships between the characters. William H. Macy brings genuine sweetness to the role of Chappy, the lovesick sheriff, and Steve Zahn is out-of-control funny as Wayne Wayne Wayne, Jr., but Jeremy Northam steals the show in a complete departure from his roles in films such as "The Winslow Boy" and "An Ideal Husband." His dance scene with Macy is one of the funniest in the movie, and he and Ally Walker generate real chemistry together. I hope we'll see more of him in contemporary comedies. I've enjoyed this movie a number of times and never get tired of it. Definitely a home video library requirement!

Summary: Shhhhhhhh!
Review: I would have rated this one three stars, were it not for the acting brilliance of William H. Macy, who is fast becoming a legend in his own time. He makes an average 'We're No Angels' knockoff above average. Overall the movie is entertaining, but the female cast was grossly underutilized. Each of the scenes containing children, with the exception of the final, redemptive frame, played out like afterthoughts, thrown in to provide perfunctory embellishment. And the joe who played the Texas Marshall with 'a secret of his own'--didn't he play opposite Linda Hamilton in the 'Beauty and the Beast' series some years back? His turn in this flick was, quite frankly, a campy disappointment. My advice? Go to 'Happy, Texas', if you can't find a copy of 'Mystery Men' at the video store.

Summary: Hilarious movie!
Review: When I first walked into the movie theater, I wasn't quite sure what to expect from this movie. What I found was a wonderfully entertaining and hilarious movie. The plot is original, the acting is great, and the script is hilarious! I really loved it!

Summary: Dumb and Dumber III...
Review: The guys in this film are dumber than dirt but they get the women anyway so the women must be really dumb or hard up. If you liked the elegant Jeremy Northam of 'The Idal Husband', 'Emma' or the 'Winslow Boy' buy those DVD's first. William Macy's character (the lawman) is sappy and I found him very unappealing (buy Fargo instead). The film has the depth, class, and humor of 'The Three Stooges.' Older kids might like the film because they can laugh at a guy holding a squashed Armidillo, but you might not want your kids to see it.
